we have friends who live in tucson, so they were familiar with this area -- near a major road (but these condos up a road and totally quiet), easy to walk to drugstores, grocery store, shopping, BOA, etc. we had a little problem finding the unit initially, but that is very minor -- it was there, but we didn't know where to look at first for building info (units are labelled A-C etc.). the unit was clean, there were plenty of extra blankets (which we appreciated because of cold spell), the heat worked fine, and the owner was so kind, she brought us chocolate croissants! we wanted to avoid noise, and we did -- even the gates (not locked) closed silently, and residents were quiet. the pool was lovely, but it was too cold when we were there (jan. and apparently unusually chilly for most of our stay) to swim, though my husband enjoyed the jacuzzi outdoors. would definitely stay there again. sybil responded to any questions or concerns immediately, and, in general, it was a clean and pleasant environment in which to have a vacation. walks on the roads above the condo are very interesting. good location, nice owner.
